Auto Brake Repair

Today’s vehicles are safer than ever. One of the reasons is today’s vehicles are equipped with dual brake systems. So, if one set of brakes stops working, the other will be able to stop the car. Vehicles are also equipped with a warning light that will come on should the brake systems malfunction. If the warning light is on in your car, truck or SUV, you should bring it in immediately to prevent further damage or safety issues.

Maintaining Your Brake Systems

Brake systems are powered by hydraulic fluid, also known as brake fluid. One of the ways to ensure the longest life for your brake system is to have the brake fluid changed by your mechanic every 24 months, regardless of how many miles you have put on the car. At Furgerson’s Garage, we are equipped to help with the regular routine maintenance required for your vehicle, including changing the brake fluid.

Why Do You Need to Change the Brake Fluid?

Brake fluid soaks up outside moisture, which can cause the boiling point of the brake fluid to lower over time. In the worst cases, the brake fluid may actually boil as the brakes get hot. Over time, this can lead to complete failure of the brake system, which can be very dangerous for the driver and passengers within the car, as well as other drivers on the road.
